[Mystic Mock]

I know the thick Housemates are usually more popular cuz their fick innit.


But why do people seem to actually dislike Dan for being clever? Yes it's annoying that he seems to know everything but it's not something that people should evict him for over Sam and Sophie imo.

[Roy Mars III]

he's pretty smart but not that clever

He questions so many things that happen in the house, of course he is going to be right once or twice. He has gotten about 50 + things wrong, and two or three things right. Not really great results

[Indy]

I don't dislike him for being intelligent. I do blame him for the lack of common sense to keep his cards close to the vest. He has no idea if he's guessing things that will lose a task. He also has no appreciation for how sharing that kind of info hurts him in the house.

He's more interested in showing off than he is in getting ahead, and it ends up with him having pouty strops like he's done last night and again today over his place in the pecking order. Instead of telling everyone "this is what's going on, so change your behavior accordingly" he'd do better to figure things out, act on his own, and let everyone else hang themselves or figure it out as natural selection has given them the ability to do so.

Firstly - he's a ******ing policeman.
Secondly - he's a ******ing policeman.

5 GCSE's grade c and above was all he needed. He's made guesses about every single thing that's happened in the house, he'll get some right.

I totally agree. I find it quite bizarre when people complain about him sussing things out. If their fav was doing it, it would be wonderful.

[Withano]

Even if he was a genius, he'd still have flaws in his personality. Why do people think he's clever? He's not.

Did you conduct his IQ test for the police force then?

[Mystic Mock]

And at least Dan shows his flaws unlike Sophie who tries so hard to hide her cruelty it's unbelievable, plus she's treating the public like idiots, don't prove her right.

[Daffodil]

I think Dan is perceptive, shrewd, funny and intelligent. And he SHOULD win!!!.

[Shaun]

I don't really see him as that intelligent, he's just suspicious of everything. All of his conversations are idle gossip, he's not really that interesting and doesn't display any interests.

Which is?

[Samm]

I know he's a clever housemate that's why he is one-off my favorites and I like him for other reasons to

It's this misconception of Dan that does my head in. He scatterguesses about everything on a show called...wait for it...secrets and lies. Wow - he must be super-intelligent to work out secrets and lies will be told through the course of the program.

100% right, it is amazing the attacks on him,I admit he has flaws, they all do as I do too.
Every single one of his though becomes major event and thread on here.
He doesn't like Callum,he gets slammed for that, Dexter belittles Callum every chance he gets but is a hero for it.

Sophie is quite selfish, okay when she gets her own way, you can though easily see the nastier side when she is displeased at even the smallest of things.
Yet, being so dull and inactive, she would be preferred to support and stay if it got Dan out.

You have hardly been on here through this series and have worked that out already, you and Dan would make a pretty good pair.

Wrong on both counts.

It doesn't matter if he's figuring it out or wild-ass guessing. Either way he needs to keep it to himself.

Why, I for one and it would seem a good few others enjoy hearing his suspicions. At least he is saying and doing something.

[Marc]

That's not why I dislike him

It sort of means there is no intelligence involved if your guessing.
